[IIS 7.0]Handler for asmx page ?

Hi there,

When I try to access a Web service running on my default Web site, on Vista
and IIS 7.0, I get an error message : "the MIME type is not recognized". So
I guess that the asmx handler is not configured ???

Regards

Well, go check the MIME types on the Web server and see if .asmx is in
there.

The .asmx extension is automatically recognized by the ASP.NET runtime. So I
think what you really need to check is whether ASP.NET is "enabled". In IIS
7.0, nothing is enabled by default - you have to "turn it on".

There is a chance that ASP.NET is not registered properly with IIS.
This has happened to me and I had to run asp_regiis.exe to re-register
it.

1. Open a command prompt and go to the Microsoft.Net Framework version
directory,
e.g. cd C:\Winnt\Microsoft.net\Framework\v2.0.50727\

2 Run the asp_regiis.exe program with -i
e.g. asp_regiis -i

Not sure if you have to restart IIS or not

Another test is to create a simple aspx web page and see if you can
access it. Possibly it will give you a better error message than a
web service method does.

It would be a shame as Asp.Net is preinstalled on Vista !!!

I don't understand why "IIS 7.0 help" is not my friend.
Thanks for the link, it works now :-))
